No chance in hell. Baylor is looking at possibly the Cotten or Alamo Bowl. Plus RGIII would rip us apart.Quote:

There is no doubt that the Tv's would be on and I am all for us playing an at large AQ school. But we do not have the same talent on the field as Baylor. I would love to beat a team of that caliper but the odds of it happening wouldn't be in our favor. RGIII is a exceptional QB. We have struggle this year with mobile QBs. I want a match up with a pocket passing spread team....not lead by Case Keenum.Quote:

I did not mean to sound like I was bashing the owners personally. I am sure they are great people. Its good to know they support the Cajuns too! I was just sharing my thoughts about their choice to have twice the amount of tigger gear than Cajun gear. It is odd to me that the Advertiser chose to interview the owners of this store rather than all of the other stores that sell the local colleges apparel. That's why I asked if Cajun fans actually shop there
I sure don't. Maybe someone else on here would know of a good website though.Quote:

Sorry Shooter, but I have to disagree with your premise that this team doesn't have the same calliber talent as Baylor. I don't think anyone knows for sure, including our coaching staff just how good our talent level is. The truth is this coaching staff was expirementing well into the season with our offensive unit. Then just about the time Blaine really started to establish himself as the offensive leader with Peoples, LG, Harris, Surgeant, & Lawson stepping up, Gauthier started getting knicked up & Qyen got the concussion. I don't think this team, with the exception of beating FIU & MTSU on the road has really had an opportunity to play its best ball this year. Add to all of that our kickers have had their problems with injuries. This bye week is critical & would have been much better to have had it a few weeks earlier in the year, but coming the same week as the Cajuns getting invited to the NO bowl & during the Thanksgiving Hollidays will be huge for these guys. I think we get to see these guys play a great couple of games at the end. This team has some very good football left in them no matter who they play.Quote:

Hah a um NO .I was checking out his knee so he wouldn't kick here in her baby bump. Then I saw the cameraman with two cameras and wondered what is he aiming at? Oh his crotch. Then I wondered what is preggo staring at? Can't tell her head is hidden by his crotch. Then I though careful that is how you got preggo in the first place. I hate explaining my knee fetish.Quote:

One thing everyone should be able to agree on is that it's been a hell of a year and that we don't want it to end!Quote:

Just in case you are wondering, I did scroll back up to verify your explanation. LOL ... I have an elbow fetish so I understand your issue. Its all about the joint right?Quote:

UL is losing a lot of revenue by not approving the right name on its gear, especially when damand is so high. That the UL Bookstore has not updated it's website is also cause for alarm.Quote:

I also see the growth in this team on all three sides of the ball from where it was to where it is. While I wish things would have turned out better in Jonesboro, & that these guys would have had a rest week somewhere earlier along the way, it also gave this group a unique opportunity to work with this staff in a high stress environment for weeks on end. To that end I think this team is maybe an extra year ahead in their preparation skills that would dictate their being able to handle a myriad of offensive schemes. I also think with the rest they would be much better on the O line & being able to run the ball to help set up the rest of their offense. In other words, I would rather see them in an exciting competitive game against a higher ranked BCS or non AQ qualifier, than a fifth ranked CUSA team that has to slide into a bowl berth on their bellies. I really hope Houston goes BCS & leaves CUSA wanting for a fifth qualifier.Quote:

I agree. If I could rank my top 5 choices out of schools who some of are only slightly possible I would go
1. Southern Miss
2. Illinois
3. Syracuse
4. Texas tech
5. SMU
5.
Chances are that CUSA will not have the necessary eligible teams to fill all of their bowl slots, and that a couple of Major conferences will have too many eligible schools.
Would you rather play SMU, East Caolina, or Marshall.....or Iowa State, Iowa, Purdue, or Syracuse?
To me, if SMU is not coming, I 'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for a shot at one of those Major programs.
I have also seen a gray long sleeve T-shirt in Rouses I've thought about buying.Quote:
